Sometimes, the wind belows where you least expect. This Friday, out of the blue, after weeks and weeks of extremely cold weather, it turned 39C as if we were in the hottest summer days. This has affected my whole day's plan, from the outfit we have previously arranged to shoot, to the whole day's schedule of meetings and other events. Luckily, I was wearing sandals and light breathy cardigan. I believe we have already started summer this year earlier and hotter than ever. Just remember to hydrate all day and and wear cottony light clothes to survive :).

I usually tend to like things labelled and quite understandable to use without reading a whole description and prescription to the product. I'm the grab and go kinda gal, hence, skincare products confuse me. This body balm, maybe at first I didn't understand how it work. I swirled my fingers in like I usually do with body butters and creams, but nothing came on my fingers! I didn't quite understand how would I get product on my skin this way. I tried using the back of my nails to scratch off some product to apply actually a got amount on my arm and it worked! However, this products is not quite moisturizing. I used it after my shower just like I usually do with the body butters, but it didn't give me the amount of moisture I expected. It is worth noting that the pretty musky scent lasted all day on my skin.

The Packaging is really beautiful, it reminds me of scented candles in a tin can with this dry rose flower right in the center.

Mother's needs , lest the rest of us, vary from one to another. Each to her own style and taste. Working moms prefer laptops, whereas housewifes prefer kitchen electric supplies. Fashionable mom's prefer bags, shoes or clothes. To spare you the hassle, Jumia is your shopping destination for all of your mom's needs.

Hope we made things easier for you this year in terms of what to buy for your mom.
